Fact Check: Here's truth about AMU terminating its registrar over violence in campus

A notice has been doing the rounds on social media which claims that the university has terminated the services of its registrar, IPS officer Abdul Hamid, for allowing the cops on campus on December 16.

The note states that Vice-Chancellor Professor Tariq Mansoor is using his special power under the AMU Act 19 (3) to terminate Hamid with immediate effect.

“It is hereby notified that as per a report of the internal inquiry committee, it is established that Mr. Abdul Hamid (IPS) Registrar was found guilty for allowing police in the university campus,” says the forged order, dated Dec 23.

Here is the forged notice being circulated:

 The Truth

However, Aligarh Muslim University’s PRO Prof. M Shafey Kidwai has confirmed to Newsd that the notice being circulated is forged and no such development has taken place.

Final Verdict

The notice being circulated is FAKE.

Justice VK Gupta, the retired chief justice of the Chhattisgarh High Court, is conducting a one-man internal probe to investigate violence on the campus on Dec 16. Hamid, an IPS officer, was appointed as the university’s registrar in August last year for a tenure of two years.

Clashes in AMU had erupted following police action against demonstrators in the vicinity of Jamia Millia Islamia in New Delhi on December 15, when some of the agitators, on being chased by police, had sneaked into the varsity campus, prompting the security personnel to enter the premises.

AMU was later closed till January 5, and the one-man inquiry committee set up on December 21.

Violence erupts in Aligarh Muslim University too
